Episode #467

Afraid, with Chris Weitz

Our friend Chris Weitz knocked politely and requested to be allowed into the lion’s den, becoming the first director to come on a full episode to discuss his OWN work. That’s right, on this Flop House we discuss AfrAId, a movie written and directed by (checks notes) Chris Weitz. And surprisingly (?) it’s one of our most joyful episodes. God bless you, brave sir.

Episode #466

The One, with Michael Shanks

“The One with Michael Shanks?” What is this, a FRIENDS episode?!? (Thank you, producer Alex, for that joke.) No — in this episode we welcome writer/director/FX artist/actor/man with impeccable taste in podcasts, Michael Shanks, all the way from his home in Australia, to discuss his nostalgia pick, 2001’s The One, starring Jet Li!

Episode #465

Smurfs, with Jesse Thorn

We welcome the man who brought us to the Maximum Fun network, Mr. Jesse Thorn, to the show this week. And how did we repay him? We made him watch Smurfs. We never said life is fair. Anyway, of all the Smurfs movies in the world, this will definitely go down as “the one with Rihanna and James Corden.”

Mini #140

Halloween Costumes on Film, with Hallie Haglund

Hallie stuck around to help ease your Hallie-ween hangover, as Elliott guides the peaches through a survey of Halloween costumes in cinema. Who wore it best, and whose costumes were just lame? We put on our cattiest Mr. Blackwell costumes and decide! And remember — MOVEMBER starts next week. Other than this brief Shocktober close-up mini, all four of November’s remaining shows will be FULL EPISODES!

Episode #462

Imaginary

Boo! Hahahha, gotcha! It’s SHOCKTOBER, when all the ghouls and ghosties and ghremlins and ghrim reapers come out to scare us! And at The Flop House it’s our traditional all-horror month! We kick off with 2024’s IMAGINARY, about the scariest thing in the world — an imaginary friend! And if you don’t believe us, watch that awful John Krasinski imaginary friend movie. We’re shivering just thinking about it!
